Lately it feels like I’ve been having mind blanks when it comes to creating recipes for this blog. Some weeks I feel like I just can’t come up with anything and just want to give up on the whole thing but I always manage to find something to share. The truth is what I share with you here is what Joe and I eat at home, that’s why you will find more savoury than sweet recipes here, because we just don’t eat them very often and honestly I’m not a big baker so those recipes are kind of every now and then for me. I try to photograph at least 3 recipes a week of what we eat to share with you but on other days our meals are pretty much simple to make and eat things! I cook a lot with grass-fed beef/lamb and turn that into different things like meatballs, sauce, patties etc and just change up the vegetables and seasonings. So I guess cooking for the blog is slightly different to cooking just for us to eat. Anyway, I’m not a chef but a home cook so I try my best to share a range of recipes and hope that you all reading this blog will enjoy them! [Read more…]

In my last post I mentioned that I have been on a bit of a sardine eating kick, and so I’ve been thinking up different ways to eat them. I like to keep things simple in my recipes, I’d like to think that just about anyone can cook what I share here on the blog, even if sometimes the steps to make something might be longer than others, I almost always use ingredients that most everyone has access to.

Yaaaayyy for Fridays! I hope your week has gone well! I’ve been busy planning and creating new content for the blog. If you follow me on Facebook, you might have seen me mention something about a newsletter, or maybe you didn’t because I never know who of you, if any Facebook shows my posts to! Anyway, the newsletter is one of the things I’m in the process of creating, this will be sent out on a weekly basis (haven’t decided what day yet) and will cover my posts for the week plus some extra bits and pieces. I can’t wait to have it all ready to share with you! [Read more…]

Chestnut & Sweet Potato ‘Pasta’

The time is officially here! Tomorrow is the day we finally fly out on our way back home to Oz! Even as I sit here typing this, and even though suitcases are packed and last minute stuff is being done before we leave it still doesn’t seem real… I don’t think it will seem real until we get off the plane in Melbourne and see our families, and even then it will probably take time to properly digest the fact that we’re there.

So you may have realised that I’m actually getting in a bit early with sharing this recipe, if you follow my page on Facebook and actually get to see my posts there, because we all know how much Facebook likes to share posts on pages with everyone (insert sarcastic emoji here!), you may have seen that I said due to leaving for holidays I will only be posting 2x week from now on, and doing a Monday + Friday thing. Well life happens, and I haven’t had a chance to develop as many recipes as I’d like to over this time so… I’m most likely just going to be sharing one post a week (sometimes two) while I’m away and getting back to normal scheduling when I get back. So apologies for that, but I guess that’s how life goes sometimes 🙂 [Read more…]
